Hey there, you hang in there! I had UHC also with the "exclusion" for WLS in the policy. I wrote an appeal letter to UHC and NCDOI office of the commissioner They responded right away, and what they do is contact the insurance company to find out if there is anything that can be done, In my case there was not, because of the "exclusion" I got the denial letter from UHC about 2 weeks after I sent it in. I was dicouraged by that point, because we had been getting so many conficting stories about the way the policy was worded, it didn't matter they still denied me. My husbands company has since changed insurance carriers and made sure that WLS was included in their policy, now I just have to wait for it to go into effect. \ You hang in there and don't give up, because it's a fight worth fighting! I wish you luck in getting approved.
